Our Yachts
Meticulously designed and crafted in France, Dufour is world renowned for producing yachts of superior performance, workmanship and comfort. All boats in the Broad Reach fleet come fully equipped with all the options, gear, and extras that make sailing a simple pleasure. The boats are rigged for easy sailing, with features such as a furling main and genoa. In addition to being fully equipped for any type of sailing, the yachts feature amenities like a teak cockpit table and a swim platform with ladder and shower. In the sophisticated interior below, you will find everything you need for a weekend cruise or a dinner party.

Our Scheduling System
Our system for sharing your Dufour Yacht is truly unique and innovative. Designed and developed by University of Chicago statisticians, and validated by lifelong sailors, the Points of Sail program ensures that each member can put together a sailing schedule that meets his or her needs, prioritizing whatever is personally most important to each member, while ensuring that the timeslots are allocated fairly between members.

Our Support
Build your confidence, hone your skills, or bring along a captain so you can entertain your guests. We offer hands on training and lessons aboard all of our fractional boats.

We are currently accepting aplications for the 2010 and 2011 Chicago sailing season. For more information please contact Captain Todd or (312) 523-3081.
